Respuesta :

That would be c

A number - 10 = 10 -  x

Answer : C is the right answer.

Given statement: The product of a number minus ten and nine equals fifty when decreased by seven equals fifty when decreased by seven.

let the number be x then

The product of a number minus ten and nine =9(x-10),[which means option A and B are incorrect]

According to the statement

9(x-10)-7=50, which is the C option

Therefore C is the right option.
